Two teams with a reputation for running the ball have the perfect environment to do just that under the roof in Dunedin. The Highlanders had a narrow loss to the Hurricanes, while the Reds scored a decisive win over arch-rivals the Waratahs last weekend, however the student section at Forsyth Barr will be packed again for this one. Kick-off is at 4:35pm NZT.
